Autumn
Alluring colours of autumn mesmerise,
Unfathomed beauty in orange and yellow,
Trenchant evanescence of greens,
Unfeigned emotions true up in jest,
Mollify the fiery torrid days,
Nautica furnaces red on edge of horizon !

For contest 'Season acrostics' by Charlotte Puddifoot
Sunflowers imitate the sun’s bright hue;
birds take flight in sunny skies of blue.
Trenchant traces seen from the hill
view joy below, peaceful, still.
Solstice comes without sound
where peach trees abound
in summer’s blush.
Soon autumn
breezes
blow.
For Andrea Dietrich's "Etheree Me" Contest
One dispensation full of grace
As gothic as my savior’s face
A trenchant shadow of the things
That law and grace can only bring
Christ in sorrow tempted me
From sin to splendor’s twinkling
A romance of such perilous times
Yet time itself is not the crime
Somnolent souls my Savior guides
Through thralldom to the gospel light
Sanity is threatened by this game banaL
Not for the faint of heart - it has its own agendA
An endless nightmare can be yours once you are snareD
Knowledge is useless when your luck has dieD
Everlasting. Trenchant; It will drain away your last drop of hopE
Survived since ancient times in India - hardly right or faiR
Squares, endless squares, lead slowly, but surely to madnesS
Obscurity's trenchant
sorrows blotting
tissue paper cuts,
tears aptly smeared
in hidden fears of
first dashed allusions,
darkly flippant metaphors
sans passionate accolades
left to gingerly decay,
grandiloquently speaking,
'Happily Ever After' is
hardly a verbose nuance
throughout a quinine
poet's collection
Impulsive to a thunderclap jumped to end of life,
Countermanded, God sent him to my rescue,
Groping to survive with cinder in my zest,
Encumbered grief to enrapture, His genial ways to
embrocate,
Trenchant, I could ideate various hues of His
cosmos,
My voyage had not reached terminus as I lionise,
Eternal he vacilitates,conceive you may or may
not,
Have felt Him aboard each time in trouble,
How true that God bursts everywhere!!
Based on painting by Bev Doolittle: Woodland Encounter
American West in Camouflage
Two Indians* hide, in the birch forest,
and ride their pintos, hooves pitting the snow.
Conspicuous - red fox in clearing - sights
quiet stride of hide and seek…trenchant ears
at peak performance in centralized cope
…sentient sentinel highlights canvas.

*Native Americans
The storm erupted
from a charcoal-bruised sky
lashing spindles
of platinum rain
upon an emerald heath
tossed in trenchant wind.
Among the hedgerows and linden
the first spires emerged
like shoots from turned loam
followed by the pitch
of tiled-stone roofs
and pewter walls
of lambent unblemished granite.
The damp auburn clay,
etched by a teal river,
birthed a soaring imperial city,
its cerulean patina to ever scintillate
in sun's timeless effulgence.
last night
i stood
searching
for a salient star
beneath
a trenchant sky
in hopes
to find
but one
brightly shining
amidst darkness
to send my wishes
adrift on
this morning
the veil
of twilight
lifted
exposing
a dawn
of ivory
innocence
aglow
with thoughts
dancing
on the breath
of december
it touched
with excitement
like a caress
of feathered
kisses
falling
from lips
of new love
i quivered
in the moment
before
blushing
beneath
somber skies
